Another healthy version of french fries to keep off the winter L.B.s! These are a great side to just about any meat or fish. Or...
Add these to your Superbowl menu with some sour cream and chives!
You'll need:
- 2 russet potatoes
- about 1/4 cup of olive oil
- fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- Kosher salt
- Put a baking sheet in the oven and get it nice and hot while you prepare the potatoes
- Wash and dry the potatoes. Rub each potato with some of the oil, and coat lightly with kosher salt.
- Cut each potato into wedges. (Cut in 1/2 longways, then cut each half into fourths. Each potato should yield 8 wedges.)
- Add the potato wedges to a bowl, and add the olive oil, and a little more salt. Toss to coat.
- Place the potatoes on the hot baking sheet in a single layer (they will sizzle!). Bake for about 30 minutes, or until potatoes are cooked through. Shake the pan occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Remove potatoes from oven, and place back into the bowl. Toss with fresh parsley and Parmesan.
- Serve!

A perfect way to cook spuds!
I love this potato recipe, K! Close to our parmesan roasted potatoes but different enough to try. I should have read this LAST night when I needed a side for our flank steak.
Holy crap this sounds good. Cooking potatoes this way is so easy that I haven't bought a bag of french fries from the market in years. Here's a variation you might want to try...when I make oven fries, I soak the potatoes in cold water for 20 minutes after cutting them. It gets rid of some of the starch and they wind up fluffier inside. It's not always practical if you're in a hurry, but I really like the results.
Chris, send link to your potatoes!
WWW, I will try soaking! Truth be told, these were crispy on the outside, but I would have liked a little more "fluff" inside! THX!
Thanks for the recipe! I was just searching All Recipes yesterday for an idea just like this. (@penutty)
